Three Great Rotary Projects

     Did you hear the one about the three great Rotary projects?

     One had a successful finish, one had a successful start and one is out of this world.

 

      Let’s start with the World Community Service Month, which Adele Wunsch told us about at Tuesday’s meeting at the Park Place.

      “No sooner had Rotary money been used to send medical supplies to Napal when they had another earthquake,” said Adele. She noted that the Napal project was typical of what World Community Service is all about, providing support around the globe.

 

     And how about that wildly successful Rotary Show, overseen by Tim Tate  in its new (but original), venue of the State Theatre?

     “We netted almost $70,000,” said Tim. “Was it different? Yes. Did we succeed? I think so.”

     He thanked the many Rotarians who had a hand in that success, singling out Sally Erickson for her idea of the President’s Reception on Wednesday night, along with other innovative ideas she had.

 

     The successful start came from Ralph Mittelberger, who detailed how the money used for the upcoming Tag Day helps everyday people, like individuals and organizations like ACT (Artists Creating Together) and Paperworks Studio.

     Ralph and his crew are asking Rotarians to sign up to work one of three days  - June 5, 6 and 7.  You can also make a donation and have a match from our Community Foundation up to $250.  Just ask Ralph or sally for a match form.  This work truly makes a difference!
